ok i have 2 pc's 1 running on xp and 1 on ME,i have put a network card in the ME one and connected them with a cat5,the ME one keeps saying hardware does not support modem and something about HAL,what should i do?sorry if im being dumb :confused:
 
First off you cant connected two comuter to each other, you will need a cross over cabel, or a switch/hub.

And it seem you are having a problem installing the network card. In oder to fully understand the problem you'll have to post the error message in full. I would make sure to uninstall all the drivers for the network card, remove the network card, and start over. But if you post the error message I can assist you better.

p.s. Windows ME Sux!

Hardware does not support Modem
Cannot Load HAL Driver

Make sure you manual install the software for you network card, dont let windows do it for you.
